Father’s Day is this Sunday. You could buy your dad a tie or a book about golf or a new lawn chair. But if you really want to show your dad you appreciate him day in and day out, you should get him something he’ll enjoy day in and day out – the gift of DoubleShot Coffee.

We have gift cards for sale in the store in any denomination or you can order them online in $25, $50 or $100 increments. And every time he’s transported by a delicious cup of our coffee, he’ll think about you and the fact that you turned out to be all right after all.

TRAVEL JOURNAL - COSTA RICA

This is the actual transcription of my travel journal from my recent trip to Costa Rica.

031417 456p

Sitting at a bar near my gate in the Houston airport. Had a big pretzel and just ordered a Goose Island IPA. I'm on my way to Costa Rica. Tonight I will arrive in San Jose and check in to Holiday Inn Express. This trip is different from most because – like my first trip to Costa Rica – I'm first conducting business, visiting Fincas Cafe con Amor and Sircof, and then going on an adventure. My first trip to CR I took my mountain bike and hit the road, eventually making my way back up to Hacienda La Minita. This time I will take a bus to the town of El Castillo, near Arenal Volcano, and run in an 80K (50 mile) foot race through the rainforest. I'm nervous, but ready for action I guess. I hope all goes well....
